About the Laurens County Jail & Detention Center
The sheriff in Laurens County and his staff are also responsible for the operation of the Laurens County Detention Center through the Detention Services Division. This facility is focused on providing a safe, clean, and secure location for all pretrial inmates. It is an adults only facility and there is a juvenile facility for the youth offenders. This is not a long term holding facility and any offenders who receive an extended sentence of any kind will be transferred to another location. While incarcerated at this location there are a few ways that inmates can remain in contact with their friends and family, which can help to improve their mental health during their time in the facility, and the most common of these is through making outgoing phone calls to their loved ones. Phone services are provided by CPC, and an account can be created to fund these phone calls through an account created at inmatesales.com or through the kiosk that is located within the lobby of the jail. This is the same website that offers video visits with inmates, and can also be accessed through the app. When booking a visit it must be done in advanced, you must be on the approved visiting list, and you will need a computer or mobile device to conduct the visit on. Hours of availability vary based on many different factors, and will be provided to those who have created an account and selected the inmate they wish to visit.

Laurens County Jail & Detention Center Booking Roster
What happens during booking in Laurens County?
After being arrested and taken into custody, and after being read their Miranda Rights, an offender will next be transported to the local police or department or the Sheriff’s Department in Laurens County for booking.
Booking is very involved and requires multiple steps in the process, however, keep in mind that most attorneys will advise that an offender remain silent and not offer any additional information about the crime they have been arrested for because anything they do say may be recorded and may very well be used against them in court.
What is the booking process like at the Laurens County Jail & Detention Center?
Booking includes having their photo (mugshot) and fingerprints taken, as well as being asked a lot of questions about their personal history and state of mind. If it’s a serious felony, their DNA may also be taken. They will also be checked for warrants in Laurens County and other South Carolina and USA jurisdictions.
If the offender was arrested for a DUI offense, and has refused a breathalyzer test, they may also be forced to have blood drawn by a doctor or nurse.
It is also very likely that the offender will undergo a humiliating full body search while in the nude. This includes bending over, spreading their cheeks in the direction of an officer, and coughing. They will also be walked through a metal detector or x-ray machine, like those used at an airport.
What kind of questions are asked during booking?
The arresting jurisdiction will ask about gang affiliations, tattoos, medical conditions, prescribed medication they are taking, recreational drugs they are on or addicted to, allergies, if they are suicidal, and other relevant information that will help with determining their cell assignment and special needs.
What happens to an offender’s personal property during booking?
During the arrest and booking process an offender will also have all their personal property confiscated and held for either their release from jail, or with the offender’s approval, released to a friend or family member.
Personal property includes the clothing they are wearing, money, wallets, purses, cell phones, jewelry, body rings, earrings, watches, and even glasses if they are deemed a security risk. If they are allowed to keep their shoes or sneakers, the laces are removed.
What happens after booking?
At this point the offender will be allowed to make a free phone call to a person of their choice to notify them of their arrest, and/or arrange a bond or bail for their release.
If the offender is being detained and housed while awaiting arraignment, the Laurens County Jail & Detention Center will provide a jail garment and slip-on shoes, a blanket, sheets, soap, toothbrush, toothpaste, and a towel.
Often, before they are dressed in the jail outfit and brought to their housing location, they will be forced to take a shower and undergo a disinfectant treatment for body and hair lice, scabies or other pests that may be residing on their person.
How long does the Laurens County Jail & Detention Center Booking process take?
Booking can take anywhere from an hour to 24 hours or more. It all depends on the number of people that are awaiting processing, the number of staff on duty at the time, and the behavior of the offender.
If the offender is heavily intoxicated and/or violent, the Booking Officer may decide to stick the offender in a holding cell for several hours until they become more manageable.
